I'm interested in all this too: I've been so happy with results from my Electro35MC that I've started thinking of replacing my rangefinder with a Bessa L...
Whilst I've no doubt an f1.7 will increase your error rate (vs. the f2.8 on my Yashica) I've found it surprisingly forgiving and come to love the combination of P&S immediacy with aperture control that you get from zone focussing (I like to feel like I'm in control, but often can't be arsed with peering into a viewfinder and twiddling a lens)

I try and shoot stopped down on zone focus-cameras. f8 is the aim – which limits it's use in England in February!

The agfa (again like an xa2) is automated and doesn't display aperture, so again... more guessing.

I'd like to try an Electro35 (GX probably) or Canon QL at some point.
